York has been out since October 23rd due to an upper-body injury but looks ready to return on Saturday vs. Chicago after taking part in practice on Friday. The 23-year-old will be welcomed back with open arms as he had two goals, three points and four PIMs in seven games played prior to his injury.
York has not played the last five games due to an upper-body injury but could draw back into the lineup on the Flyers' upcoming road trip, which begins on Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 23-year-old York is averaging 22:56 time-on-ice and has three points (2G / 1A) through seven games this season.
York suffered an upper-body injury late in Wednesday's loss in Washington and will miss at least the next two weeks. Erik Johnson will replace York in the lineup on Saturday but Rasmus Ristolainen will move up to the top pair to take on additional minutes in York's absence.
Seven games through the 2024-25 season, York leads all Flyers players, averaging 22:56 time-on-ice. York has also contributed three points (2G / 1A) and will be sorely missed from the Flyers' blueline if he misses any time. The Flyers return to action on Saturday afternoon against the Minnesota Wild.
York had two goals, 18 assists, 42 SOG, 18 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 54 games in 2022-23 with Philadelphia and has signed a two-year, $2.6 million extension ($1,300,000 AAV). The 22-year-old defender was Philadelphia's 2019 first-round pick (14th overall) and has five goals, 25 assists, and 76 SOG throughout his 87 career NHL games in three seasons.
York will make his 2022-23 Flyers debut as he draws into the lineup for Tony DeAngelo (healthy scratch) Friday. The 2019 1st-round pick (19th overall) had three goals, 10 assists and four PIMs in 20 games played with Lehigh Valley (AHL).
York has spent most of the season in Lehigh Valley but has scored one goal with two assists (three points) in 13 games with the Flyers earlier in the year. York has totalled 12 points (2G / 10A) in 34 AHL games.
York was the No.14 overall pick in 2018 and signs with the Flyers after two seasons at the University of Michigan. York scored four goals with 16 assists (20 points) in 24 games and will likely report to the AHL.
